I suspect Cunifer is the same. Easy to flare and bend with the added benefit that it doesn’t corrode. I bought mine in 25’ lengths from Amazon. I also bought an assortment of fittings that came in a kit. Very reasonable. A little practice with a flaring tool and you’ll be an expert or at least ready to tackle your brake lines.
Do be careful buying CuNi tubing as there are cheap ones that advertise CuNi but instead are steel lines with a CuNi coating to keep them from corrosion but they will corrode from the inside and they are also harder to flare and bend. Genuine CuNi tubing is Copper Nickel all the way thru.
